Rosecraft Modern Knives "Priced to Move."

Remember when Fred fell in with those bank robbers and one guy had a switchblade that opened into a full-sized meat clever? That's what the Ogee reminds me of.

Rosecraft Blades has “decided to move away from Modern Knives altogether.” This is news to me, though it seems to have been going on for a while, but it was news to me, maybe you too. There are still a good number left, and the discounts are good. I pocked up the Ogee because it reminds me of an episode of the Flintstone’s.

My other Rosecraft modern model is the Castorea, which is, for all intents and purposes, a modern grandaddy Barlow. The name is interesting, some sites say castorea means “beaver,” and other sites say it’s a beaver’s scent gland. The blade does resemble a beaver’s tail. I don’t know what a beaver’s scent gland looks like.

Anway, if you like quality modern knives, or are just modern-curious, there’s plenty of bargains there.

"No, you cannot see my castorea!"
